    But Bishop I'm a cousin - Yes I'm 200 times removed (not counting the number of times I was thrown out), from the wrong side of the moors, poor Scot-Irish trash, wanted in 12 counties for various crimes against sheep, but a cousin - please please please please

    Ok I understand - but as others have said she rocks and an inspriation to those of us who have Grandmothers who have passed on, treasure her while you can.

    Now as a way to repay your fantastic grandma, ,make sure you and your brother , take grandma out for a special dinner, and movie (or play), she will remember it always. As you both will.

    I would also find a way for her to actually sign and date your kilts!

    I would love to take her out to dinner, but that will have to wait as she lives states away from me. We dont get to see eachother very often, but let me assure you, she will know how much I appreciate it. I would like her to sign and date the kilt though. I must have her do that at my graduation.

    Seeing the kilt opened up like that....it's like watching surgery...now I'm feeling queasy.

    But it looks like it'll turn out great! Can't wait to see the photos of you wearing it.
